Congratulations to my friend he just rented another apartment in school area, we’re currently in the same level and we’re heading to our final year school, he did a job with Utest platform and he was paid handsomely so he decided to get a more comfortable space close to the school area because his previous place is not too comfortable enough for him. So we went to help me with the painting and fixing of somethings in his new house . I love painting so much, it’s something I will have love to learn if I’m opportune to learn a new skill. Painting is the art of applying paint or other medium to a surface, usually to create a visual representation or to protect the surface. Here's a comprehensive overview of painting:
